Introduction
IFCI’s full form is Industrial Finance Corporation of India, founded as a
Statutory Corporation in 1948 to offer medium- and lengthy finance to
industries.
IFCI became a Public Limited Company under the Companies Act of 1956
when the IFC Act was repealed in the year of1993. IFCI is currently a
government-owned corporation, with the Indian government owning 61.02 %
of the company’s paid-up capital.
IFCI is also a recognised Public Financial Institution under Section 2(72) of the
Companies Act in 2013 and is registered as a Systemically Important Non-
Deposit Taking Non-Banking Finance Company with the Reserve Bank of India
(RBI).
Indian capital markets were somewhat underdeveloped at the time of independence in 1947. The need for capital was fast
increasing, yet capital sources were scarce. The commercial banks that existed at the time were not well-positioned to meet
long-term capital demands in any substantial way. The Industrial Finance Corporation of India (IFCI) was created on July 1,
1948, by adopting the IFC Act 1948 in response to this backdrop and to bridge the demand-supply gap for capital needs in
the sector.
IFCI’s full form is the Industrial Finance Corporation of India, India’s first Development Financial Institution, established to
promote economic growth through infrastructure and industry development. Since then, IFCI has made substantial
contributions to the economy through its unwavering support for initiatives in manufacturing, infrastructure, services, and
agriculture-related industries. The Indian Capital Markets and Financial System saw considerable changes after the Indian
economy was liberalized in 1991. The constitution of IFCI was converted from a statutory corporation to a company under
the Indian Companies Act, 1956, to facilitate raising funds directly through capital markets. The company’s name was
subsequently changed to ‘IFCI Limited’ in October 1999.
